stSophomore Trigonometry Students

Sophomore Trig students:  Please note that that ISBN# for your textbook is incorrect on the booklist that was published in May.  The correct ISBN# should be 978-1-876543-11-2.  The book is titled Math for the International Student HL (Core).  Students should not purchase the Worked Solutions book (only Mr. Lustig gets that one!).  The correct book is also available on the Guerin Catholic online bookstore at www.guerincatholic.bkstr.com.  Please contact Peg Dispenzieri, Assistant Principal, at pdispenzieri@guerincatholic.org if you have further questions.
